Shelled reptile (8)

Ross

I think it could be either:

tortoise

terrapin

'shelled reptile' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for tortoise that I've seen before include "Reptile with a shell" , "Slow-moving reptile that won race against a hare" , "Slow-moving land reptile" , "he's slow to eat lettuce etc" , "Shelled creature" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
